COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN OF SOLDIER PILE AND LAGGINGRETAINING WALLS WITH TIEBACK ANCHORS

By

KEVIN J. D* AMANDA

FALL 1991

Chairman: Dr. Frank C. TownsendMajor Department: Civil Engineering

Soldier pile and lagging walls are used to support

open excavations and restrict lateral movements. They

also provide an increased factor of safety to nearby

structures and utilities against excessive deformations

and loss of bearing capacity. The soldier pile and

lagging wall consists of structure H-beams driven into

the ground with wood lagging installed between the

flanges of the beams to retain the soil. With the use

of tieback anchors as bracing, they can provide an

unobstructed area for construction.

The design of the soldier pile and lagging wall

consists of developing a pressure envelope for the soil

conditions and determining the number and location of

Page 29: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 30: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

the anchors for a given H-beam's section modulus. The

pressure envelopes for braced excavations differ from

Rankine's active state. A braced excavation deforms

more laterally at the bottom of the excavation than the

top due to the installation of the anchors. Peck

(1969) developed pressure envelopes for braced

excavations which can be used for the design of a

retaining wal 1

.

A C++ language computer program was developed to

optimize the design of the soldier pile and lagging

wall. The pressure diagrams for sand and clays

developed by Peck and tieback anchor capacity curves

from the Federal Highway Administration were used in

the program. Also referenced was Naval Facilities

Engineering Command, Design Manual 7.2, for flexible

wall design. By varying the number and location of the

tieback anchors, the wall design may be optimized for

given soil conditions and wall requirements.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Soldier pile and lagging retaining walls with

tieback anchors are used to support open construction

excavations and restrict lateral movements of the

surrounding soil. The wall provides a factor of safety

to nearby structures against any loss of bearing

capacity as the result of lateral movements. With the

use of tieback anchors, an unobstructed excavation for

construction can be provided. Figure 1.1 illustrates a

typical soldier pile and lagging wall with tieback

anchors. The basic design of the system is as follows:

a. Determine the given boundary conditions

indicating soil stratification, water level, slope of

the soil behind the wall, and surcharge loads.

b. Compute the lateral earth pressure diagrams

for the braced excavation including any pressure

diagrams from surcharge loads.

c. Design the components, which include the

soldier pile; wale; tiebacks; and lagging, based on the

pressure diagrams.

The pressures diagrams for braced cuts differ

from lateral earth pressures obtained by Coulomb's or

Rankine's theory. Peck (1969) derived lateral earth

pressure diagrams for braced cuts in sands and clays

which can be used to calculate the maximum moment and

reaction forces for the design of the retaining wall

system.

The basic concept of bracing an excavation is

based on the excavation causing the removal of a mass

of soil and water from a site. The ground water table

may also be lowered outside and below the excavation to

accomplish the construction. Consequently, these

actions will result in a total stress release and

movements in the surrounding soil. A retaining wall is

typically installed to control these movements.

Satisfactory performance of the wall requires that the

excavation periphery not have any excessive movements

or deformations. Moreover, deformations of the

surrounding soil may be limited so that adjacent

structures and utilities are not adversely affected.

The factors that influence deformations include the

dimensions of the excavation, soil properties, ground

water control, time (time excavation open, time a

section is unbraced, etc.), support system, excavation

and bracing sequence, near-by structures and utilities,

and transient surcharge loads. (Lambe and Turner,

1970)

1.2 Computer Program Requirements

The design of soldier pile and lagging retaining

walls requires the determination of the number and

Page 37: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 38: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

location of tieback anchors for a given section modulus

of a soldier pile to ensure the pile is not

overstressed. This computer program was developed to

calculate the maximum moment of a soldier pile, depth

of embedment, and reaction forces based on the soil

conditions, depth of the excavation, and location of

the tieback anchors. By varying the location and

number of the anchors, the design of the soldier pile

wall may be optimized.

The computer program will also calculate the

required anchor capacities, bonded and unbonded

length of the tieback anchors, and the section

modulus of the wale system based on anchor spacing

and soil type. Tieback capacity and length is based

on pressure injected tiebacks in cohesionless soils

and post-grouted tieback anchors in cohesive soils.

1.3 Computer Language

The computer program was written and compiled in

Borland Turbo C++. c was originally developed in the

1970's for use with the UNIX operating system. The

definition of C was first presented in The C

Programming Language , First Edition by Brain W.

Kernighan and Dennis M. Ritchie in 1978. The

American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

developed a new standard for the language five years

later which resolved ambiguities in it (Turbo C++

Users Guide, 1991). Turbo C++ implements the latest

ANSI standard for C. It is manufactured and a

registered trademark of Borland International, Inc.

CHAPTER TWO

BRACED EXCAVATIONS AND TIEBACKS

2.1 Braced Excavations

Braced excavation retaining walls are used to

support the sides of temporary excavations in various

construction applications. The vertical face of the

cut is held open by the retaining structure until a

permanent structure can be installed. The permanent

structure may include the basement of a building, walls

of a parking garage, or underground facilities. The

braced structure restricts the inward movement of the

surrounding soil preventing settlement, collapse of the

excavation, and possible bearing capacity failure of

nearby structures. Table 2.1 lists the factors to be

considered in designing a braced excavation. The most

common methods of supporting a temporary excavation are

sheetpile walls, dri 1 led-in-place concrete piles,

slurry walls, and soldier pile and lagging.

Sheetpiles are driven into the ground prior to

excavation, interlocked forming a wall, and then the

soil excavated. They may be supported by struts or

anchors as required. Dri 1 1 ed-in-place piles may be

used with a spacing so that lagging is not required.

Arching of the soil from the lateral pressures

developed by the pile will retain the soil across the

open spacing (Bowles, 1988). A slurry wall is

constructed when concrete is cast-in-placed in a cavity

retained open by a slurry liquid. After the concrete

cures, the soil next to the wall is excavated. Soldier

pile and lagging uses steel H-piles driven into the

ground prior to the actual excavation. Lagging is

placed between the piles as the ground is excavated.

The lagging may be either wood or steel members.

Anchors or struts are used to support the wall as the

excavation proceeds.

If present, ground water acts against the wall and

thus contributes to the stresses which must be carried

by the wall. It also influences the effective stress

of the soil. The total force felt by the wall is a

combination of the hydrostatic force and the effective

soil stress. If flowing water occurs, a seepage

analysis should be made. Factors which must be

considered in a seepage analysis includes the

permeability of the insitu soil, leakage through the

wall, flow parallel to the wall, excess pore pressures

generated by changes in total stresses, seepage forces,

and the time the excavation will be open and hence the

Page 47: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 48: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

degree of saturation. The actual pore water pressures

generated will typically be less than static pressures.

(Lambe and Turner, 1970)

2.2 Soldier Pile and Lagging

The procedure for constructing a soldier pile wall

is to drive the H-piles into the ground prior to any

excavating. The piles are driven with the flanges

parallel to the proposed cut. They are usually spaced

between four and ten feet apart. When they have been

driven down to the desired depth (typically five to ten

feet beneath the proposed excavation bottom when in

soil), the excavation begins in stages. The first

stage of the excavation is made to the location of the

uppermost strut or anchor. Timber lagging, cut to fit

between the webs of adjacent soldier piles, is placed

in back of the front flanges of the piles. They are

set one piece of lagging on top of the other with only

a small spacer between them. Straw or a geotextile may

be placed between and behind the lagging to reduce

seepage through the wall. Once the lagging is set

down to the first strut level, a horizontal wale is

installed against the piles and the struts or anchors

placed at the desired spacing. The excavation then

Page 49: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 50: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

proceeds to the next strut level, with the process

continuing until the final excavation is reached.

(Keorner, 1984)

Primary components of a soldier pile and lagging

wall are as follows:

1. Soldier piles which may be either steel H-

beams , steel tubular pipes, concrete piles, or cast-in-

place concrete piles.

2. Support system of braced struts or anchors.

Anchors may be cast-in-place deadman, piles used as

anchors, sheetpile wall sections, or tieback anchors.

3. Wales which distribute the anchor force as

a line load between the soldier piles. They are

usually structural steel sections.

4. Wood or metal lagging which supports the soil

between the piles. (Boghrat, 1989)

Advantages of using soldier pile and lagging walls

include fewer piles, the lagging does not have to be

extended below the excavation bottom, and the soldier

piles can be driven easier in hard ground than can

sheetpile sections. By varying the spacing of the

soldier piles, underground utilities may be avoided.

Also the use of heavy sections for piles will allow

wider spacings of wales and bracing. (Merritt, 1976)

2.3 Tieback Anchors

Temporary tieback anchors are used to support the

sides of deep excavation retaining structures. Tieback

systems deform less than strut braced excavations

because; (a) a force at or above the active earth

pressure is locked off in every tieback, (b) tieback

construction does not require over excavation, (c)

tiebacks are not subject to significant temperature-

caused deformations or loads, and (d) rebracing is not

required for tieback walls. When the depth of the

excavation exceeds fifteen to twenty feet and the width

exceeds sixty feet or when obstructions significantly

impact construction, tieback walls are usually less

expensive than strut braced support systems. Tieback

walls provide a clean open excavation for construction.

Internally braced walls interfere with excavations,

concrete work, structural steel placement, and

backfilling. (FHWA/RD-82/047 , 1982)

Some disadvantages of a tieback anchor system may

include obtaining permission for the placement of the

anchors in the property of a municipality or a private

owner. The location of the anchors may be outside the

boundaries of the project where soil properties were

not obtained. Achieving a satisfactory anchorage

capacity in soft clays or submerged sands may also be

difficult to achieve. (Clough, 1972)

The capacity of tieback anchors is dependent on

the size and shape of the anchor, tendon type and size,

insitu soil properties, and installation and grouting

method of the anchor. Design of a tieback system

should include the following:

a. a tieback feasibility evaluation,

b. an evaluation of the risk and consequences

of failure,

c. the selection of a tieback type,

d. the estimation of the tieback capacity,

e. determination of the unbonded and total

tieback length,

f. selection of a corrosion protection system,

g. selection of a tieback testing procedure,

and

h. establishment of an observation and monitoring

system. (FHWA/RD-82/047 , 1982)

Federal Highway Administration report number

FHWA/RD-82/047, Tiebacks, provides detailed guidance

and design procedures for tiebacks.

CHAPTER THREE

DESIGN THEORY

3.1 Lateral Earth Pressures in Braced Excavations

When sufficient yielding of a retaining wall

occurs, the lateral earth pressure can be approximated

by Coulomb's or Rankine's theory. However, braced

excavations yield differently than conventional

retaining walls. Figure 3.1 depicts the different

deflections of the two wall types. The deformation of

a braced wall gradually increases with the depth of

excavation. The variation of the amount of deformation

will depend on the type of the soil, depth of the

excavation, and construction of the wall.

At the top of the excavation, deformations are

small thus the lateral earth pressure approaches the at

rest condition. At the bottom of the excavation, the

deformations are greater, but the lateral earth

pressure will be lower than Rankine's active earth

pressure. Therefore the distribution of lateral earth

pressure deviates from the usual linear distribution

(Das, 1990). This is illustrated in Figure 3.2. The

total force exerted against the wall may be 10-15%

greater than active condition. The state of stress

behind a braced excavation has been described as an

arching active condition (Lambe and Whitman, 1969 and

Cernica, 1982).

The pressure envelopes proposed by Terzaghi and

Peck (1967) and as recommended by NAVFAC DM-7.2 (1982)

are assumed for the design conditions within the

program. The earth pressure envelopes for braced walls

in sands, soft clays, and stiff clays are illustrated

in Figure 3.3. For stiff clays, NAVFAC DM-7.2 (1982)

recommends horizontal stresses between 0.2 and . 4"ftH

.

The value of . 4"tf

H is used within the program. The

stability number is calculated as N$

= "tfH/c. Where ^

is the unit weight of the soil, H is the depth of the

excavation, and c is the undrained shear strength of

the soil. Characteristics of these pressure envelopes

include:

a. They apply to excavations deeper than twenty

feet

.

b. The pressure envelopes assume the water table

is below the bottom of the cut. Sands are assumed to

be drained with the lowering of the ground water table

behind the wall. Clays are assumed undrained and under

short-term conditions.

c. Lateral stresses are apparent stresses which

are to be used for the calculations of the reaction

loads

.

The apparent stresses are for entire sand or clay

layering only. Engineering judgment should be used for

tills, silts, or fills; varying soil type with depth;

and when hydrostatic stresses act on the wall.

Lambe and Turner (1970) concluded that predicting

the behavior of braced excavations cannot be made with

16

Page 63: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 64: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

complete confidence. This is the result of difficulty

in selecting the proper soil parameters, field boundary

conditions, and the details of construction. However,

Ulrich (1989) concluded that the recorded pressures for

overconsolidated clays agree with those developed by

Peck (1969). Ulrich also noted that soil

stratification does not have a significant influence on

the apparent earth pressure in overconsolidated clays.

In another case study in Washington D.C. where the soil

stratification was layers of sands, silty sands, and

stiff silty clays, the measured earth pressures fell

within the apparent earth pressure envelope of 0.2^5*1

for clays (Chapman et al . , 1972). Results from other

excavations in the Washington area revealed that the

apparent earth pressure coefficient varied with the

depth of the cut. A value of 0.15#H for a thirty foot

cut, 0.2tfH for a forty to fifty foot cut, and 0.23"uH

for a sixty foot cut (Chapman et al . , 1972). The

design of braced cuts is predominately based on

pressure diagrams derived empirically as a result of

field tests. Sound engineering judgement should be

used in determining the applicability of a given

pressure diagram for a particular cut.

3.2 Active and Passive Earth Pressures

For the initial two stages of construction, the

soldier pile wall will develop earth pressures

approaching the active and passive states. In granular

soil, the soil is assumed to be drained and active

earth pressures are developed as the wall deforms

laterally. This is resisted by the passive resistance

which is developed as the H-beam compresses the soil

acting on an effective area of three times the width of

the H-beam below the bottom of the excavation. However

there exists some uncertainty of how the pressures act

at and below the excavation line (Bowles, 1988). The

active and passive earth pressure coefficients are

calculated assuming Rankine's theory.

In the case of cohesive soils, undrained

conditions (i = 0) are assumed with no frictional

resistance developed. The stresses in the tension zone

are neglected in the design computations with the depth

of the tension zone taken as zt

= (2*c-q)/ }f .

3.3 Hydrostatic Pressure

Hydrostatic pressure is calculated as the unit

weight of water (62.4 pcf) multiplied by the height

of the water table. It is assumed in the program

18

Page 67: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 68: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

that sand and gravels are drained and the water table

will be drawn down to the bottom of the excavation by

natural seepage or mechanical dewatering. This is

illustrated in Figure 3.4. Clay layering is assumed to

be undrained and analyzed using either a total or

effective stress analysis approach.

3.4 Total versus Effective Stress Analysis

Some question on how to analyze the wall is raised

when the ground water table is located above the bottom

of the excavation in clay layering. The apparent

lateral earth pressure envelopes proposed by Peck are

19

Page 69: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 70: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

based on empirical data from total stress analyses.

The use of a buoyant unit weight rather than the total

unit weight of the soil and superimposing hydrostatic

pressure onto the earth pressure diagrams change the

analysis to an effective stress analysis approach.

However the total stress soil parameter of undrained

shear strength is still used. Therefore this effective

stress analysis approach is not entirely correct.

Either a total or effective stress analysis

approach may be used to design the wall. In the case

of a total stress analysis, the saturated unit weight

above and below the water table should be entered. For

an effective stress analysis approach, the saturated

unit weight above the water table and the buoyant unit

weight below the water table should be used. The

location of the ground water table for the effective

stress analysis must therefore be located above the

bottom of the cut.

Generally, the results from using the total unit

weights (total stress approach) are more critical

loading conditions than the approach adapted by using

buoyant unit weights (Liao and Neff, 1990).

3.5 Surcharge Pressure due to a Strip Load

To account for the lateral pressures due to a

strip surcharge load located at some distance from the

wall face, an equivalent uniformly distributed pressure

acting on the wall is developed. The total force

exerted by the strip load on the wall is calculated and

then converted to a uniform pressure by dividing the

total force by the height of the wall. The force is

calculated by the equations derived by Jarquio (1981)

and as illustrated in Figure 3.5.

3.6 NAVFAC DM-7.2 Recommendations on Flexible Wall

Design

The following recommendations from Naval

Facilities Engineering Command, Design Manual 7.2

(1982) were considered in the programming.

a. The total resistance force acts on an

effective area of three times the flange width of the

pile (3*bf) as shown in Figure 3.6. This is to account

for the differences between the failure in soil of an

individual pile element and that of a continuous wall

for which pressure distributions were derived.

3 bf

Figure 3.6Effective Width of Soldier Pile that Passive

Pressure Acts Upon (NYCTA, 1974)

b. For temporary construction, a factor of safety

of 1.5 should be applied to passive pressures. This

option is available within the program but it is not

recommended. Passive resistance is calculated using

Rankine's theory which is already conservative compared

22

Page 75: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 76: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

to a logarithmic spiral failure surface approach to

estimate passive resistance.

c. Neglect the soil resistance to a depth of 1.5

times the pile width from the bottom of the excavation

for clays and the depth of the pile width for sands.

This, however, is not accomplished in the program. It

was considered that significant conservativeness

already exists within the wall design.

d. The required depth of embedment is calculated

based on controlling the moment within the section to

ensure the pile is not overstressed at the final

anchor location. The active soil pressure will be

resisted by the passive pressure and the allowable

moment of the section.

3.7 Other Design Considerations

Other design considerations included within the

program are:

a. To calculate the anchor reactions, it is

assumed the piles are hinged at the bottom of the

excavation and at all the anchor locations except the

upper anchor. The soldier pile between each pair of

hinges is assumed to be a simply supported beam

(Bowles, 1988 and Das, 1990).

23

Page 77: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 78: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

b. An allowable stress for the steel soldier

piles of 28,800 psi is used to calculate the required

section modulus.

c. Wales are designed assuming they act as simply

supported beams, pin-ended with maximum moments equal

to w*l /8. This moment is then increased by 33% to

allow for overstressing during preload testing of the

anchors. An allowable stress for the steel of 28,800

psi is used to calculate the section modulus from the

maximum moment

.

3.8 Design Methodology for Wall Analysis

For the first two stages of construction, the

active and surcharge forces are being resisted by the

passive and reaction (stage two) forces. The reaction

force is calculated by summing moments about the point

of net zero forces on the embedded pile assuming it is

hinged there and thus zero bending moment. The maximum

moment within the pile can be calculated by summing the

moments about the point of zero shear. From the

maximum moment, the required section modulus is

calculated. The embedment depths are calculated for

stage one by determining the point where the net moment

is zero and for stage two by assuming fixity at the

24

Page 80: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

anchor location and summing moments there so the pile

is not overstressed. For clays, the stresses within

the tension zone are neglected in the calculations.

The force diagrams are illustrated in Figures 3.7 and

3.8 for sands and clays respectively.

Kiewit design procedures are also used to

calculate the maximum moments and reaction force for

the initial two stages of an excavation. Kiewit

procedures were developed by Peter Kiewit Sons'

Company based on empirical data and field results.

In the first stage, it is assumed that a pinned

connection exists in the pile two feet below the

bottom of the excavation. The maximum moment is

calculated at this point. In the second stage, the

maximum moment is taken as M = w*l /9. Where w is the

average pressure on the span from the first anchor to

the bottom of the cut and 1 is the distance between the

anchor and the bottom of the cut. The reaction force

is calculated assuming pinned connections at the anchor

location and the bottom of the cut.

After the second anchor is in place, the pressure

distribution will correspond to those for braced cuts.

Reaction forces are calculated by assuming pinned

connections and summing moments about the anchor

locations. Next the point of zero shear is found and

moments summed about it to calculate the maximum

moment. The pressure diagram for sands is depicted in

Figure 3.9 and in Figures 3.10 and 3.11 for clays.

Embedment depth is determined by summing moments at the

3.9 Tieback Anchor Capacity

In cohesionless soils, the tieback anchor

capacity is calculated assuming pressure injected

tiebacks using an effective grout pressure in excess

of 150 psi . Figure 3.13 shows curves developed by

Ostermeyer (1975) as an function of length and soil

type. An average of these values was used to develop

equations for each soil type to calculate anchor

capacity in the program. These values assumed anchor

diameters between four to six inches and a depth of

overburden greater than thirteen feet.

In cohesive soils, tieback capacity is based on

post-grouted anchors with grout pressures in excess of

150 psi. Figure 3.14 illustrates tieback capacity

based on clay consistency. An anchor diameter of six

inches was assumed to calculated tieback capacity.

3.10 Minimum Unbonded and Total Anchor Length

The unbonded length of the anchor is calculated

based on locating the bonded length of the anchor

outside the failure zone behind the back of the wall.

The location of the failure zone is based on using

the failure surfaces from Rankine's theory. Report

number FHWA/RD-82/047 recommends that the length of

the anchor be of sufficient length to locate the anchor

in soil which would not be affected by movement of the

wall. The unbonded length should place the anchor

beyond the critical failure surface as illustrated in

Figure 3.15. Also recommended is a minimum unbonded

length of fifteen feet to avoid load losses as a result

of long term steel relaxation, creep in the soil,

anchorage seating losses, and structural deformation.

The total anchor length should be of sufficient

length to ensure a satisfactory factor of safety

against sliding along the most critical failure

surface through the ends of the anchors. If the factor

of safety is insufficient, the total anchor length

should be increased (FHWA/RD-82/047 , 1982). This is

also illustrated in Figure 3.15.

This computer program does not calculate the

factors of safety against failure of the tendons,

failure in the anchor zone, or overall external

stability against wall failure. Boghrat (1989)

recommends the use of the STABL computer program to

calculate of the total anchor length to achieve a

minimum factor of safety. The user manual for PCSTABL4

is presented in the Federal Highway Administration

Report No. FHWA-TS-85-229 (Carpenter and Kopperman,

1985)

.

3.11 Lagging Thickness

The required thickness of the wood lagging can

be estimated from Table 3.1 from report number

FHWA/RD-75/128 (1976). The table is based on soil

type, depth of the cut, and soldier pile spacing.

CHAPTER FOUR

COMPUTER PROGRAM

4.1 Program Flow and Logic

The computer program logic and flow is illustrated

in the flow charts shown in Figure 4.1. Appendix A

contains the variable nomenclature for the program and

the actual program file is included in Appendix B.

Appendix C contains various calculations and equations

used within the analysis functions in the program.

4.1.2 Data Functions

The data functions will input, read, edit, and

save the input data or save the analysis results. The

input function prompts the user for the input of the

various wall and soil data. The read function prompts

the user for the filename of the data. If the file

does not exist in the working directory, an error

message is displayed and it requests the filename be

reentered or the function aborted. Upon finding the

file, the data is read and entered into the appropriate

program variables. The view data function displays the

wall and soil data and requests if any changes are

desired. If a change is desired, the number of the

item and then its new value are entered. The save data

function will save the input data in a DOS file in the

working directory. If the file already exists,

verification will be requested before coping over it.

Lastly, the save function will save the results of the

analysis in a DOS file. The save routine will request

the filename and verification before coping over an

existing file. After executing a particular routine,

the program returns to the main menu.

4.1.3 Analysis Functions

The next series of functions perform the various

analysis calculations. The analysis function requests

entry of the estimated thickness of the pile, the

factor of safety against passive pressure, and the

depth of over-excavation below an anchor depth.

Following input, the function determines the soil type

and executes either the sand analysis or clay analysis

function. After executing the sub-function and

completing the calculations, flow is returned to the

analysis function and the results are displayed.

The sand analysis function executes its analysis

in three stages. The first stage is for the initial

stage of excavation before the first anchor has been

installed. It calculates the point of zero shear,

maximum moment at the point of zero shear, required

section modulus from the maximum moment, and the depth

of embedment at the point of zero bending moment. Stage

two is for the second stage of excavation after the

first anchor is installed. It calculates the same

items as stage one plus the reaction force. The

embedment depth is based on not overstressing the

pile at the anchor location assuming fixity there.

Additionally for the first two stages, the moments

45

Page 121: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 122: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

and reaction force are calculated using the Kiewit

criteria. Stage three is executed for the stages of

construction after the second and thereafter anchors

are installed. The pressure distributions for braced

cuts are used in this stage. The reaction forces,

point of zero shear, maximum moment, and required

section modulus are calculated in the function. The

embedment depth is calculated by calling the sub-

function, "min_D". It calculates the embedment depth

from the maximum moment for each particular stage.

After the final stage is completed, the minimum

embedment depth is calculated from the maximum moment

for all the stages of construction. The sand analysis

function uses the function "ka_kp" to calculate the

average unit weight, friction angles, and coefficients

of passive and active earth pressures. The base

friction angle and unit weight are the properties of

the soil layer at the bottom of the excavation.

If the soil type is clay, the function clay

analysis is executed. It performs essentially the

same calculations as the sand analysis function. It

first determines the location of a tension zone, if

it exists, and excludes the stresses within it from

any calculations. Also it verifies the soil will

46

Page 123: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 124: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

support the excavation based on the net passive

resistance of the structure being greater than zero

(p . = 6c/fs + 2c - q > 0). An error message is

displayed if it will not. In the third stage routine,

the stability number of the cut is calculated and the

pressure diagram corresponding to the stability number

determined. The function "ca_cb_wt" is used to

calculate the average unit weight and shear strength of

the cut and the base shear strength. The base shear

strength is calculated from an average over a depth

twenty feet below the bottom of the excavation.

Both the sand and clay analysis functions use the

function "strip" to convert a strip surcharge load to

an equivalent uniform surcharge load. This surcharge

load is then included in the design calculations.

The anchor analysis function is used to calculates

the section modulus of the wale for each row of

anchors, the required anchor capacity, the bonded

anchor length based on soil type and anchor capacity,

and the unbonded anchor length. Prior to the actual

analysis, anchor spacing; the inclination angle of the

anchors; and soil type are entered. After completion

of the various calculations, the results are displayed

before the program returns to the main menu.

4.2 Assumptions and Limitations

1. The coefficient of passive earth pressure is

calculated assuming Rankine's theory which is

conservative compared to a logarithmic spiral failure

surface approach in estimating the passive resistance.

2. An average unit weight and friction angle (or

cohesion) for the cut is used in the soil pressure

calculations. The base values for sands are the

properties of the sand layer at the bottom of the

excavation. For clay layering, the base value for

cohesion is calculated by averaging the cohesion values

over a twenty foot depth below the bottom of the

excavation. This is to account for soft or stiff

layers just below the bottom of the excavation. The

difference between a soft and very stiff clay layer is

more significant than that between a loose and dense

sand. It is recommended only minimal soil layering be

used

.

3. A cut of entirely sand or clay layering is

assumed in the program. The computer program will

not accept mixed soil layering or silts. As an

alternative, an equivalent value of cohesion for a

sand layer may be averaged with a cohesion value of

the clay layer as follows:

48

Page 127: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 128: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

c„ = [ ^ s*K

s*H

s

2*tan$ + (H-Hs)*n'*q

u] /2H.

Where, H = total height of the cut,

Hs

= height of the sand layer,

Y = unit weight of the sand layer,

Ks

= lateral earth pressure coefficient for

the sand layer (~1),

$ = angle of friction of the sand layer,

q = unconfined compression strength of clay,

and

n' = coefficient of progressive failure

(ranges from 0.5 to 1). (Das, 1990)

With the average unit weight for the cut, the

pressure diagrams for clays can then be used to design

the wall. NYCTA (1974) recommends an alternate method

where the pressure diagrams are calculated using

Rankine's earth pressure theory for the individual

layers and an average uniform pressure over the entire

wall calculated from these pressures.

4. Sands are assumed to be drained with the water

table being drawn down below to the bottom of the

excavation. If the cut is not drained or the water

table is not drawn down, the hydrostatic pressure

should be included in the calculations.

49

Page 129: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 130: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

5. For clays, short-term undrained conditions are

assumed. If drainage may occur as in the cases of

long-term construction (partially drained) or post-

construction (fully drained), an effective stress

analysis should be accomplished using effective stress

parameters (c' and $'). Drained conditions for clays

are usually more critical than undrained conditions.

6. The assumption that the wall acts as a series

of pinned beams is conservative compared to assuming a

continuous beam and analyzing it using a finite

element approach.

7. The program does not calculate the overall

stability of the structure. Most probable failure

surfaces should be checked to ensure a satisfactory

factor of safety.

8. The program does not check the stability of

the base. Seepage forces should also be considered if

present to check for quick conditions.

9. Anchor capacity is based on field testing of

pressure injected tiebacks in cohesionless soils. The

capacity curves used were developed with the majority

of anchors less than eight meters and most were not

tested to their ultimate capacity (FHWA/RD-82/047

,

1982). For cohesive soils, post-grouted tiebacks are

50

Page 131: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 132: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

assumed. The mechanism by which post-grouted tiebacks

develop their capacity is not entirely understood.

Increases in capacity of 25% to over 300% are possible

depending on the soil type and the post-grouting method

(FHWA-RD-82-047, 1982). The curves used represent a

wide range of values and an average of these values is

used to calculate capacity. The actual field

capacities of the tiebacks should be verified in the

field.

10. Wale design is conservatively calculated based

on assuming pinned ends at the anchor locations.

4.3 Example Problems

Examples problems for sand and clay layering,

with and without a ground water table present are

included in Appendix D. The solutions are compared to

the computer's solutions to ensure reasonable results

are produced by the program.

the pile, factor of safety for passive resistance,

and the depth of over-excavation respectively. The

actual results from the analysis are listed under

item 16 and include: stage; point of zero shear;

maximum moment; embedment depth; and reaction forces.

The location of the point of zero shear is from the top

of the pile. The depth of embedment is calculated

from the maximum moment for that particular stage and

is measured from the bottom of the cut. Four notes may

be displayed within this section. The results using

the Kiewit criteria for the first two stages are listed

in the first note. The next note lists the minimum

depth of embedment based on the maximum moment from all

stages of excavation. If the penetration depth for the

last stage or the minimum embedment depth is less than

six feet, a note is displayed indicating NYCTA (1974)

recommends a minimum penetration depth of six feet.

The last note is displayed for clay layering stating

the type of analysis, either total or effective stress,

used in the calculations.

The anchor and wale analysis results section

lists the anchor spacing, inclination angle of the

anchor, and soil type under items 17 through 19. The

results of the analysis are listed under item 20. It

includes anchor row, section modulus of the wale,

required anchor capacity, (bonded) anchor length, and

unbonded anchor length. A note is displayed stating

how the anchor capacity was derived. Another note is

displayed if the unbonded length of the anchor is less

than fifteen feet. FHWA/RD-82/047 recommends a minimum

unbonded length of fifteen feet.

CHAPTER SIX

CONCLUSIONS

6.1 Review of Objecti ves

The objective of the computer program was to

provide a rapid and effective method to analyze braced

excavations. By varying the number and location of

tieback anchors, the design of a soldier pile and

lagging wall may be optimized. Once an initial design

is computed, the engineer may then accomplish final

design calculations based on the results from the

computer program. This will significantly reduce the

time to accomplish an actual design.

6.2 Summary of Design Procedures

Recommended design procedures are first to

determine the soil conditions, wall requirements, and

any surcharge loads. Next, select an initial number

of anchors and their respective locations. Then run

the program with the selected data, revising the number

and locations of the anchors until the reaction

forces and required section modulus are within

acceptable limits. A soldier pile section may be

63

Page 157: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile
Page 158: Computer aided design of soldier pile and lagging ... · Calhoun: The NPS Institutional Archive Theses and Dissertations Thesis Collection 1991 Computer aided design of soldier pile

selected from the Manual of Steel Construction (1980)

based on the required section modulus. Lagging size

may be chosen from the design table included in chapter

three (Table 3.1) from FHWA/RD-75/124 (1976). The

anchor analysis function of the program may be used to

estimate the wales' section modulus and the unbonded

and bonded length of the tieback anchors. Spacing of

the anchors may be varied until acceptable results are

produced. Also by adjusting the input parameters, the

effects of a ground water table; different soil

conditions; or increased surcharge loading may be

analyzed

.

The program does not check the overall stability

of a wall and the surrounding soil mass. The soil

pressure acting against a wall may be greater in the

case of slope stability than for braced cuts and thus

govern wall design. Also, the factors of safety

against failure of the steel tendons of the anchors

and failure in the anchor zone should be verified

separately. The computer program PCSTABL can be used

to accomplished this analysis.

6.3 Conclusions

The program SOLDIER.EXE can provide the engineer

with a quick and effective method of designing a

soldier pile and lagging wall. With the program, the

engineer can also investigate the effects of differing

soil conditions, water table location, surcharge

loading, and wall dimensions and properties.

The engineer must understand the design concepts

and assumptions made within the program to ensure they

are applicable to a particular project. This

computer program is not intended to be a replacement

for a complete design by a competent engineer. The

stresses produced by braced cuts can only be roughly

estimated and a monitoring system should be employed

for critical cuts to ensure the acceptable performance

of the wall. The overall satisfactory performance of

the wall depends greatly on determining accurate soil

parameters, the external loading conditions, and the

use of proper construction procedures.
